EQUATE Group, a global producer of petrochemicals and the world\u2019s leading supplier of Ethylene Glycol, has announced the renewal and expansion of its five-year managed infrastructure services partnership with Kyndryl, a leading provider of mission critical enterprise technology services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The renewed agreement reinforces a long-standing collaboration focused on advancing operational reliability, cybersecurity and continuous digital improvement across EQUATE\u2019s worldwide operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Building on EQUATE\u2019s established digital infrastructure and data-driven culture, the partnership continues to enhance the company\u2019s IT reliability and efficiency through integrated monitoring and automation tools that strengthen visibility and resilience across global sites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of EQUATE\u2019s continuous improvement initiatives, the collaboration also extends to modernising employee service channels. New cloud-based and AI-assisted features will simplify internal support processes and enhance responsiveness, reflecting EQUATE\u2019s commitment to empowering its people with effective and reliable digital experiences that enable them to focus on innovation and operational excellence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, Kyndryl Consult will continue to work alongside EQUATE\u2019s technology and operations teams to identify optimisation opportunities and align digital initiatives with the company\u2019s business, safety and performance objectives. This ongoing collaboration focuses on measurable improvements to reliability, efficiency and cost-effectiveness, so that EQUATE\u2019s technology investments continue to support its long-term growth and sustainability goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cReliability and safety are the foundation of EQUATE\u2019s operations,\u201d said Dr. Salman Alajmi, Vice President of Technical Services, EQUATE. \u201cOur collaboration with Kyndryl continues to build on that foundation. By consolidating visibility and automating critical processes, we are further strengthening operational resilience and enabling our teams to focus on innovation and value creation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEQUATE has consistently set benchmarks for industrial reliability and digital maturity,\u201d said Pieter Bil, Senior Vice President & Managing Director, Kyndryl Middle East & Africa. \u201cWe\u2019re proud to extend our partnership to help enhance observability and automation through Kyndryl Bridge.
